  • Comments: My first 70.3! This was a great race. The volunteers were great. The fans were awesome - I got goose bumps and a little choked up running down the finisher chute as several hundred people I didn't know cheered for me. I will definitely do this race again.

  • Comments: Muncie puts on a very good race! the transition and finish area is in a park that is very family friendly. The only downside is that it's nearly impossible for spectators that are coming in later to actually get there. The food at the finish was just ok, but personally I really wanted a beer and they didn't have any. Overall, as always, I have yet to find anyone that compares to an Ironman branded event. At the end of the day, you really do get what you pay for. Ironically, as much as I really liked this race, I don't know that I would do it again. This sounds bad, but the reason is that the conditions I had were as good as they'll ever be in Muncie and I would have a hard time comparing future performances to this one because of the unseasonably cool weather we had.

  • Comments: Great race, venue, staff and volunteers. Did this race last year and bombed the run. Came back this year for redemption and I got it. PRed the race course by almost 40 minutes. Very pleased with how this went. Thanks to my coach Mo and team Playtri. I started with coach after last years race and we made a huge improvement since then...40 minutes!! I'll take it :)

  • Comments: This is a really well run race. Great aid stations, (13 and well stocked all day) the best post race food I've ever had, especially for an IM event, and fun but challenging course. The bike was too crowded for my liking lap two, but still a blast to ride, and the run was tough and challenging but not over the top crazy hard. Of course, had it been a typical Muncie hot/humid day, that run would have really sucked! We had perfect weather which was so nice to race in. Raced with lots of Fraser, ATCK, FAST and EN teammates and friends, and yeah, that always makes the day for me no matter the outcome. But it helps when the outcome only a minute or so off of your PR with cruddy training! Gives me hope for IMCHOO!!!
